  1. My Ryobi petrol edger is 25 years plus and still going strong.
  2. Thank’s Zoran for inviting me along on DevOcean it was great it finally worked out. I spent the weekend hoping the weather predictions for Monday would hold which it did. Next time I will try to catch my share of the bait! Driving out to the FAD I expected to see the water temp creep up but that wasn’t to be unfortunately but we still managed a few fish in great conditions. As for the flatties they were elusive again despite our best efforts. I really enjoyed the day with you on DevOcean seeing the methods and systems that you use. I will be filleting and skinning Dollies your way in the future.
  3. They are there now. It often seems to take a while with the first game of a round.
  4. It is the 3rd biggest in the FR records if you submit it.
  5. Wow thats awesome Chris you sure can find the fish. I really don’t recall seeing a Sambo that size caught in Sydney.
  6. You can’t beat quality family time and a top feed. Well done.
  7. A very good result in uncomfortable conditions. Well done.
  8. Wow, thats very impressive. I bet those kids have been talking about it ever since, i know I would be!
  9. With the hot day predicted we kicked off pretty early hoping to avoid the worst of it, it turned out to be a calm overcast day and not as bad as forecast. Plan one was to chase some squid the first 20 minutes or so was slow until we found the jigs that worked. After that we had a steady stream of calamari playing along and a couple of feisty ones giving us a spray. W e set up the downrigger to see if we could convert a squid into a king with no success, so moved onto the artificial reef in Yarra Bay. There was plenty of action there with huge slimies, a salmon that thought it was best to do laps around the other lines and and some undersized flatties. We moved on in search of some flatties on plastic with no success so called it a day. It was nice to be on the water again especially without the crowds. Sorry no pictures today.
  10. Well done on getting out so often the pictures in your report are amazing, thank you for sharing. Cod fishing sounds like a lot of fun when the strike.
  11. That is a very nice pair of fish. What depth were you fishing in?
  12. I am picturing you and your mum doing some funny looking dance moves across the kitchen floor 🤣. Those Environets sure are slow in the water.
  13. That is so annoying when the conditions don't work out. With the Blue Swimmers letting go, i have seen on a fishing show when they are close to the boat but below the surface dropping the rod tip in the water and wrapping them in fishing line before they pet go. It might be worth a try.
  14. What a cracking day you had well done and thanks for the report.
  15. Nice work again Larkin. The reddie had a lucky day would have found its way into the esky if i caught it.
  16. Thats awesome fishing for a weekend in the Hacking. Well done.
  17. Wow well done Chris I didn’t think they would be about yet. Sounds like it may have been a marlin that took a liking to that yakka.
  18. Well thats a great feed of snapper and a fun way to catch them. Nicely done.
  19. I think I am still yet to lose one! I am collecting a bit of lead and the odd V can though. Things have settled down a bit for me so I should have a few more opportunities for some fishing fun.
  20. I especially liked the bream part of the story. Eyeballing the fish before you outsmart it is all kinds of cool 😎.
  21. It doesn't matter what the subject is your research is always first class and informative Zoran so thank you. I will be downloading the app and passing it onto my family members as well. Dulux's response was pretty impressive and it should be the standard. I would imagine if you look into the cosmetic companies accounts the marketing spend would be significantly higher than the R & D or customer relation spend. Your experience struck a chord with me on both counts. Quite a few of my uncles are painters but one was unable to paint his own house because my Aunty reacts to the paint and for some time after the house is painted so it was better left as is. My sister has fairly bad skin allergies, has had the chemical tests and has to be extremely careful of the personal and cleaning products she uses. At work she has to have her own desk and when we go out for dinner she wont put her arms on a table until she has laid out napkins so her skin doesn't contact the table. I use the Nivea sunscreen you scanned but not on my face as it makes it feel puffy and irritated, maybe I need to take your lead and do some culling myself.
  22. It sounds like you and Maria have had a pretty rough couple of months, it must of been nice to get out on the water and providing some entertainment for your crew. I hope you get to the cause of Maria's reaction and can avoid it in the future, it must of been very scary for you both.
  23. Basil you are absolutely smashing it! The effort was well worth it!
